RootsMagic Place Name Edit Tip

RootsMagic Place Name Edit Tip

In the Place List if you highlight a place and click on Print it should default to printing a list with everyone using it [the place name in question]. You can save it [the report] as a PDF if you can't [don't want to] print [the report]. If no one [in your file] is using it [the place name] then click on "Unused Places" in the Place List and you can delete them [the problem place name].

Not mentioned by Renee Zamora is that you can also use the report information to determine which RINs are involved with the place name and then use that information to find and view the records for possible edits. Information in the square brackets [ ] added by yours truly to improve readability.
